Missing Mandatory Parameter

Question

Hello ,
I am facing a problem in calling a stored procedure from OCI . It shows an error "Missing Mandatory Parameter". The Code Snippet is shown below:
Stored Procedure
CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE CHARARRAY AS TABLE OF VARCHAR2(100)
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE Test_Pkg
AS
-- Chararray keeps just VARCHARs
TYPE chararray IS TABLE OF VARCHAR2(255) INDEX BY BINARY_INTEGER;
-- Overloaded emp_report to use chararray as Argument
PROCEDURE Test_report(L_out out chararray);
PROCEDURE Test_report_in(L_in in chararray);
END;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY Test_pkg
AS
PROCEDURE Test_report(L_out out chararray)
is
begin
L_out(0) := '1000';
L_out(1) := '1001';
end;
PROCEDURE Test_report_in(L_in in chararray)
is
begin
dbms_output.put_line(L_in(0) || ' ' || L_in(1));
end;
end;
The OCI Program Code Snippet is shown below:
OCIType *names_ar_tdo;
OCIColl names_ar = (OCIColl ) 0;
OCIInd *indp = &ind;
ret_code = OCIStmtPrepare(stmt_hdl, error_hdl, (text*)storedproc_str,
strlen((char*)storedproc_str), OCI_NTV_SYNTAX, OCI_DEFAULT);
ret_code = OCIDefineByPos(stmt_hdl, &defn_hdl1, error_hdl, (ub4) 1, (dvoid *) 0,
(sb4) 0, SQLT_NTY, (dvoid *) 0, (ub2 *)0,
(ub2 *)0, (ub4) OCI_DEFAULT);
ret_code = OCITypeByName(env_hdl, error_hdl, service_hdl, (text*)"USER1", (ub4) strlen((const char *)"USER1"),
(text*) "CHARARRAY",
(ub4)9,
(CONST text *) 0, (ub4) 0,
OCI_DURATION_SESSION, OCI_TYPEGET_ALL,
&names_ar_tdo);
ret_code= OCIBindByName(stmt_hdl, &bnd1p, error_hdl, (text *) ":L_OUT",
(sb4) -1, (dvoid *) 0,
(sb4) 0, SQLT_NTY, (dvoid *) 0, (ub2 *)0, (ub2 *)0,
(ub4) 0, (ub4*) 0, (ub4) OCI_DEFAULT);
ret_code = OCIDefineObject(defn_hdl1, error_hdl, names_ar_tdo, (dvoid **) &names_ar, (ub4 *) 0, (dvoid **) &indp, (ub4 *) 0);
ret_code= OCIBindObject(bnd1p, error_hdl, names_ar_tdo,
(dvoid **) &names_ar, (ub4 *) 0,
(dvoid **) &indp, (ub4 *) 0);
ret_code = OCIStmtExecute(service_hdl, stmt_hdl, error_hdl,1,0,NULL,NULL,OCI_DEFAULT);
Here while executing the OCIStmtExecute , It shows an error "Missing Mandatory Parameter" .
Please kindly help me out from this problem. It would be very gratefull for me.
Thanks in Advance

UDAY,
As you have been told already in the several other forums where you posted this same question:
Oracle does not come with a default service name of "orcl" defined.
You have also been told to use the "lsnrctl" command to see what services are defined.
Have you done this?
(You'll have to excuse me if this is not the answer you were wanting to hear.)
Good Luck,
Avi.
